Re: [LML] LOP vs ROP Climb: Time and Fuel Burn (LIVP)
Hi Jeff,
I like reading everyone's opinions here on the
list. Even more than that, I like reading hard data. Thanks for sharing your
data with us Jeff, good stuff. Just a small technical note, 500 fpm climb
is not required by ATC, we just need to notify them when we can't
maintain 500 fpm. (AIM 5-3-3-1c)
a. The following reports should be
made to ATC or FSS facilities without a specific ATC
request:
1. At all
times.
(c) When unable to
climb/descend at a rate of a least 500 feet per minute.

N6ZQ IV under construction
<snip> The VSI was chosen to produce
at least a minimum 500 fpm climb (notably required by ATC), hence a lower
forward IAS when LOP.<snip>
